A WOMAN implicated in Datuk
Seri Anwar Ibrahim's alleged RM3bil controversy has demanded that the
Opposition Leader clear her name, reported Mingguan Malaysia.
Zaliah Zakaria said it was
important for Anwar to explain the issue so people would know the truth and for
her family not to become his political victims.
“I want Anwar to explain the
truth,” she was quoted as saying.
“I feel pressured because a
close acquaintance even labelled me as Anwar's mistress,” she said.
Zaliah has lodged a police
report in Kuala Lumpur and a complaint with Pertubuhan Islam Gabungan Amal
(Pertiga), a Muslim-based welfare organisation.
Utusan Malaysia had earlier
reported Zaliah's confessions after Ummi Hafilda Ali, one of Anwar's critics,
linked a mystery woman to his alleged RM3bil wealth.
Zaliah claimed that her
children don't feel safe following Ummi's allegation that she had to pay over
RM50mil in income tax, and that she either owned or was associated with 62
luxury units, including condominiums and bungalows.
“I fear that Ummi's
statements could put my children in danger of being kidnapped,” she said, while
calling on Ummi to stop linking her to the issue.
Pertiga President,
Sabaruddin Ahmad said that by remaining silent, Anwar had caused a third party
to suffer the brunt of his political agenda. (STAR)
